Hello Guys,

If you was going to spend £25,000 on a car which car would you choose ?

If I was going to spend 25k, I'd get a used 335d.

Depends on what I'd be using it for (daily, commute, weekend fun, kids, single, track days).

Do you have no idea what you want? Spend £15k on a reliable Volkswagen then.

Lotus Europa or Esprit. T350 is a good call, would love one of those too. Maybe even a Triumph TR5.

The standard answer tends to be a 996TT but whether it's actually possible to get a good one for that money, I'm not sure.

It would probably depend on my mood and/or what I was after from the car.

Most likely would be a 2003/4 Mustang Cobra SUPERCHARGED and with the change swap on a Kenne Bell twin screw blower instead of the Eaton Roots and do some other upgrades. Aim for a nice reliable and usable 600-700hp.

Given that I already have the Elise, probably a nice series-2 E-type.

Porsche 997/996C4S or a Jaguar XKR most likely smile

ETA if it is a toy then probably a classic like a TR5 or Austin Healey 3000, or moderns maybe an Aston Martin DB7 Vantage?

..and another as I wouldn't mind seeing the £25k again.

Or maybe an M6 in Sepang Bronze if the devil had the better of my judgement that day hehe
